1.Compression-the part of the wave where the particles are close together.
2.Frequency-the number of times a wave makes a complete cycle in a second.
3.Wavelength- distance between one point on a wave to the next similar point on a wave the faster the vibration is,the shorter the wavelengths will be.
4.Pitch- a measure of whether a sound seems high or low.
5.Reflection- the bouncing back of a wave off and object or suface.
6.Absorption- the taking in of light energy by an object.
7.Transparent- describes meterials that let nearly all the light rays that hit them pass through.
8.Translucent- describes materials that let some light rays pass through but scatar light pass through them.
9.Opaque-describes materials that do not let light pass through.
10.Refraction-bending of light caused by the change of speed that occurs when light rays pass from one transparent medium to another.
Energy- light and sound are forms of energy.
Sound is created when air vibrates.
Sound does not travel at the same speed.
Light travels in a straight line called rays.
High frenquency- if somethings vibrates fast.
A light wave can travel through a vacuum but a sound wave cannot.
Absorption can change light energy to heat energy.
Red apples have the color red becauseit reflects the light waves of red frenquencies.
The most importantlight source is the sun because without the sun, there would be no plants to harvest and eat. Without plants, we cant live on Earth. Earth is also cold and dark without the sun.
Colors that make up the visible light spectrum in order from left to right are:
Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Violet
Sound travels fastest in solids and slowest in gases. Why?
Vibrations pass quickly through the particles of most solids. Those particles are strongly attracted to each other so the sound moves quickly. In a gas, the particles are not attracted to each other , not easily compressed, and do not bounce back so sound travels more slowly.

Lihgt has things in common with sound:
(1) Both forms of energy.
(2) Both travel in waves.
The sun is our most important light source. Without the sun, the earth would be too cold and too dark to live on.
Plants convert or change sunlight into chemical energy witch they use to make thier own food. People and animals eat the plants. Light travels straight lines called rays.

electromagnet radiation- light energy
White is a blend of the colors of the rainbow. The colors appear in a particular order because of thier wave length and frequency. It starts from the left, and ends in the right.
ROY G BV R=red O=orange Y=yellow G=green B=blue V=violt Red has the longest wavelength with the lowest frequency Violet has the shortest wavelength and the highest frequency.
Lesson 4
Light waves travel in a straight line. Light can change when it hits an object:
(1) the light rays can pass through an object
(2) they may reflect off an object
(3) they may be absorbed by the object
reflection- is when the light rays bounce (or reflect) off a surface back to our eyes. Absorption- when light rays are taken in by an object and then becomes a form of heat energy
